"But nothing about our F-type drained more ballpoints than the way
it sounded-like an orchestra whose strings, brass, woodwinds, and
percussion have been replaced by shotguns, chain saws, fireworks,
and hand grenades. The Jag's active exhaust is clearly engineered
to drown out the wail of Porsche flat sixes and overpower the low
rumble of naturally aspirated Chevrolet Corvette V8s." Car and
Driver, August 2015
For consignment, a 2014 Jaguar F Type S convertible with a title
verified 8,062 actual miles. Here's a car that was almost $100,000
when new and this well preserved example is barely broken in!
Exterior
Like an inky dark sea, the Stratus Gray Metallic rich tone is
accentuated by the 20-inch black wheels and if they're not to your
liking, the car comes with the original wheels and tires. But look
how the wheels and canvas top work to sandwich the gray is a
stunning profile as red calipers peek through the spokes and the
polished fender vent trim pops off the surface. The wind defying
shark like front end is spectacular, the grille accented with a rim
of silver, but come with us to the back of this car where the star
of the show shines, a wide decklid over flush and contoured tail
lights that hug the corner and then, the exhaust tips, like a pair
of trumpets, take center stage, literally. The S-badge adds a spark
of color to the exterior which, other than a single scratch, is
essentially free of flaws.
Interior
We bet you were expecting monochromatic black inside? Well,
surprise because here we have Brogue brown coloring the door insert
and armrest and the fantastic, white stitched leather race inspired
bucket seats. There's the slightest waviness to the leather at the
ingress point on the driver's seat but hardly a demerit on
otherwise perfect forms. A flat bottomed and ergonomic steering
wheel presents to the driver with more buttons than a Joann Fabrics
store, perfectly framing the large print gauges and digital screen
ahead. The center stack cascades like a frozen waterfall with a
screen displaying among other things the AM/FM HD radio with
satellite, and A/C knobs and buttons, flanked by a brown leather
grab handle for the passenger. Piano black dresses the center
console where more buttons and a shifter of high quality reside.
The floor, headliner, and trunk are all finished nicely and
clean.
Drivetrain
Completely shrouded by a branded engine cover is the 3.0 liter
supercharged DOHC V6, rated at 380 horsepower and backed by a
Quickshift ZF8HP 8-speed automatic transmission which routes power
to the rear axle with 3.31 gears and limited slip. The bay presents
as showroom fresh.
Undercarriage
Spotless underneath with no rust nor fluids. The tunnel heat
shields dress things up as the dual active exhaust flows through
original equipment on their way to that epic exit. Meanwhile, four
wheel power disc brakes are on board and the adaptive dynamic
suspension is configured with double wishbones front and rear.
Drive-Ability
No complaints here as the Jag performs as if fresh, probably
because it is. The cockpit is ideal and the power on hand is more
than you'll likely need on daily commutes, but will surely be fun
when you put your right foot down. Handling, braking, tracking, and
of course, that exhaust note, all satisfying to the senses and all
functions on board operate as intended and we return this feline
phenom back to the mall.While Classic Auto Mall represents that
these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we
cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of
your purchase.
It looks good, it sounds great, it even smells nice! Wrap yourself
in a luxury sports car with more bells and whistles than your
iPhone and more style and panache than your Rolex. If you missed
out on one in 2014, now is your opportunity to get back in the
game.
